I have red and a blue handled version which are both branded other manufacturers but are seemingly made in the same factory. As a low voltage technician, I dull many pairs of snips a year cutting and stripping various wire. These are properly hardened and sharpened unlike the ubiquitous free-fall snip most techs get a home depot. On copper wire, you likely wont dull this tool at all, but inevitably you'll end up cutting some shielded wire, T-grid, or other whathaveyous. When they are sharp they work great on fiber optic (as designed) but obviously bind up in weaves/string within cables when dull. I collect pocket knives and can say I have successfully sharpened a pair once or twice. One "blade" has very fine serrations to grip the cable, so you cannot sharpen it without removing those first. It's usually enough to just smooth out it's back side and sharpen the non-serrated blade. After a few sharpenings you may ruin the curve in the blade - scissors and shears have the blades bent inwards toward each other to maintain a pinch point. The screw that holds them together is easy to adjust, and the nut you see on the back side prevents your adjustment from changing. These will rust. They seem to be made with a good quality and affordable carbon steel, which is just not going to have chemical protection. If you're keeping them in a fiber kit to remain sharp just throw some lightweight oil on them from time to time.

These are the same Miller kevlar shears that they sell. They are not a knock off or inferior product. **Q: Do these come with a belt pouch?** A: At one time they came with a leather pouch... But more recent orders revealed that they came only with the scissors and nothing else. Still great kevlar and fiber scissors. **Q: Do these come in a left handed model?** A: Hi, we do not have a left handed model. Ripley Customer Service **Q: Do these come with a belt pouch?** A: No. It is very hard to find these shears as a combo with the pouch. I usually order them separate. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic shears *by S***E on July 21, 2024* I've purchased these shears multiple times.
